There are two directions you can go on this seed. Either straight into the bryce and mesa or to the left into the desert that contains two villages and a desert temple. You’ll probably want to check out both.

You’ll spawn in a plains biome, but the bryce will come into view in front of you. Those colorful spikes are easy to spot. The desert isn’t visible from the spawn, but you can easily find it by going left into the savanna next to you. You’ll see the first village right on the edge of the desert and savanna.

The Desert Villages and Temple

We’ll start with the desert features first. The first village that hopefully you have already found isn’t anything spectacular, but it does give you food to survive on. There are plenty of buildings to take shelter in, and you may be able to get useful items trading with the villagers.

Village #1

The next village is about the same as the first, but it has the desert temple right next door. So it may be more worth your time to check out. Travel east through the desert until 610 / 67 / 199. You can explore around the village or go straight to the temple for the good stuff.

Village #2 and the Desert Temple

Down in the drop of this temple, you’ll find the four chests stuffed with golden apples, enchanted books, iron and gold horse armor, emeralds, gold ingots, iron ingots, and a saddle. Those emeralds would be very useful to trade better things with the villagers.

The Mesa and Bryce

If you go back near the spawn point, you can explore the mesa next. The bryce section you could see after you spawned isn’t very big, but there are more spikes elsewhere in the mesa.

The Mesa and Bryce

Mesas are unique because of the colored clay and red sand that make up the terrain. They’re also known for having gold ore at any height or depth in their caves, and they have abandoned mineshafts on the surface.

The Abandoned Mineshaft

You don’t have to go far in this mesa to find the first mineshaft openings. You can find some at 102 / 67 / 590, behind the first hill. Explore these many tunnels for chest minecarts and ores. Hint: You can find your first chest containing iron, gold, and lapis lazuli at 106 / 69 / 646.
